And congrats for not having to go through the Temple. Pretty boring movie, and lots of memorization to make it to heaven. At least now I don't feel guilty for falling asleep anymore. Besides by the time I went through they made it much more PC. Kind of sad I didn't get to see the omitted stuff. Heard it was pretty cut throat.

Thanks for the advice. I sent in my resignation letter on 11/21/11 to church headquarters. Already received my first dodge letter dated 11/28, and have not heard from anyone yet. I'll call Member records 3 days after Jesus' birthday and have them send me a confirm letter. I'm really excited to be officially done with the church.
